Silver Back!!

Yay! Gorillas! Today you will learn about gorillas! Their diet is mainly fruit, leaves, and shoots. They also have strong teeth to CRUSH bamboo.
GRAY
Male gorillas over age 12 are called 'silverbacks,' becuase of the silver patch on the back. I think this is very interesting. Well, for all those gray-haired ladies, be glad becuase you don't gray at age 12 (hopefully.)
Amazing Human-like Creatures
These gorillas can be ferocious, but one boy fell into the gorilla enclosure at the zoo, and a gorilla cradled him, protected him, and helped him stay safe. This tells us that gorillas can be nice, and they are very human-like.
Primates!!! Woohoo!!
Go primates! We all are primates (even you monkeys reading this.) Lets go PRIMATES!!!
The scientific name is gorilla gorilla. Weird huh! Also cool and mysterious!
